I’m writing this as post as a professional. Please understand that I train and rehabilitate dogs with aggression, dominance and behavioral issues all the time. It is what I love to do and I can say that I understand dogs. I’ve walked the walk and talk the talk. I’ve rehabbed dogs the other trainers give up on or won’t even touch. I understand aggression …
Find the Breed You Hate, then Kill them All
It seems this is whats going on in Denver right now. There are certain cities in the US and countries that have bans on certian breed dogs. There are insurance companies that won’t write homeowners policies for people who own certain breeds. One breed in question, and the one Denver is in the news for now is Pit Bulls. …
Smiling Sasha – SAVED – now Loving LOLA
With so much crap going on, here’s a little story to warm your heart. I received and email, among the hundreds I receive every day. This one was different. A little Sharpei / German Shepherd mix stuck down at the South Central Pound. I’ve dealt with them on a few occasions and always like to go see Tomika, a very …
Oh-Sooo Sweet
OSO was scheduled to be killed in the local shelter because of aggression. One of my favorite things to work with and rescue are dogs that are labelled aggressive. Almost every dog I’ve pulled was labelled aggressive. In fact if you check my philosophy on aggressive dogs at www.blackbeltdogtraining.com you will get a better scope of me. Oso was scared …
Save a Pet – Save a Buck!
The LA City Shelters are moving them out, and you get the deal. Yes, I am promoting the LA City Shelter system here, as they are very actively promoting adoptions.. I like that. Take a look at the flyer below. Check out several shelters, as each location features slightly unique models. Most have 4 legs, 2 eyes and a tail… …
End the Gas Chamber
As many of you know, it is the core mission of BOUND ANGELS to end the killing of animals in shelters. Lets start with the idea that animals are sill being gassed. This is an incredibly sick method of killing pets. The attached video is not for the weak of heart, however IF you’ve ever loved a pet, watch it …
The Breeder – Your Friend
I probably have less of a problem with breeders than some people in rescue, but there is still an underlying issue that needs to be addressed. So long as there are 5 million shelter animals dying in shelters, why do breeders continue? The biggest problem with breeders is that most are not checked out, which means you are dealing with a potential of puppy …
Leave NONE Behind – the rescue of Daisy aka Annie
Last week I posted “DO NOT ADOPT THIS DOG” It was my ploy to see who would step up. This campaign was a huge success. I found a home for the dog I named Daisy. Daisy was the dog that was in the cell with Hope… we all remember Hope. Well, I had a home for Hope, but I knew …
From Hope-less to Hope- FULL
One of my happiest days… All of you know how much saving Hope has meant to me and it is a dream come true. I pulled Hope from the downtown animal shelter on Thursday and drove her to San Diego. I had a few people offer to do it for me, but I had to do this myself. I almost …
is She "Hope-less"?? Update on Hope
Never Underestimate the Cruelty of Man: I Believe Never Underestimate the Kindness of Man: Trying to Learn Well, I returned to the shelter today to visit “Hope.” This old lady has been weighing heavy on my heart. How could someone just dump her there? Well, I spent some time with her and she is quite a case. It seems she is blind …
